hi, i have 7 Light Sussex X silkie X Araucana Chicks hatched a week ago, can you determine sex of these by their wings and tail feathers...from what i can see, 3 have what look to be little tail feathers where as the other 4 don't, the same three have longer wing feathers and are round, where as the other four have stumpy wings cut right across....does this signify male and female and if so, which is which????
I am thinking, from what confusing information i have read, that the 3 with the little tail feathers are female. but not 100%, can't get a pic, as mother hen is way over protective and won't let me near them
